Reservation is paying the price for PMLD action

Let's call a spade a spade. The town of Princeton won and Wachusett Mountain State Reservation is once again paying the price. To State Representative Lew Evangelidis and Princeton Municipal Light Department General Manager Jonathan Fitch, we must give you credit. You reached all the way to the top not caring what type of precedent this might set state-wide on other high-ground state parks in the commonwealth just so some influential Princetonites can get their way.

If it were myself or any other person committing an illegal act as PMLD General Manager Jonathan Fitch did on October 11 by installing a 53-foot pole on a state reservation, you and I would be in court with a hefty fine to boot. The state troopers were called in to remove PMLD, luckily Mr. Fitch and his work crew left the mountain without incident. Rep. Evangelidis has demonstrated that he condones such an act by continuing to negotiate on behalf of PMLD. It's too bad Rep. Evangelidis with his 43 percent environmental record won't fight as hard for the rest of the environment as he did for a single commercial entity, PMLD. You lost our vote representative.
